Haye: "Vitali is Boente's puppet, he does what he is told"

Premium network Epix bought the rights to show the fight. It was shown on the jumbotron in times square. Wald is banned from NYC. It was the biggest HW fight of the year and a title wasn't even on the line.

 

why is he banned from NYC?

 

:deal

 

CHEF will duck the thread now the Klitschko's have been exposed.

 

Not welcome back after the Sultan fight.

 

Of course they sign the deal!! Where else can they go?? K2 knows this which is why they offer these shitty contracts!

This is what I hate about klitfans. In your eyes has k2 EVER done something wrong, and has he EVER offered someone a shitty contract???

 

What exactly is so shitty? The career high payday, fighting in a full soccer stadium, the rematch clause (which is normal for a champ to have?), the chance to unify the titles guaranteed in the contract?

It's only shitty because they don't have a shot in hell at winning.

 

Wlad also will never fight in the US again in case he cant use his personal ref who allows him to repeatadly foul.........


“The people who run the building came to us and asked us to bring a Klitschko fight to the Barclays Center,” Boente said in the article. “When we said yes, they said we had to take Golden Boy as a co-promoter. We’re not going to do that.

“I don’t want to do a co-promotion with an American who has nothing to do with the Klitschkos. Why should we? We’re about to do our seventh stadium event"



“It’s pretty simple,” Schaefer said by telephone from Los Angeles on Wednesday. “We have a multi-year deal with the Barclays Center. We made a commitment to bring boxing to Brooklyn. Opening night is Oct. 20. It’s a big event with fighters signing autographs, and a red carpet. That night is not about Golden Boy Promotions. It’s not about the Klitschkos. It’s about Brooklyn and bringing boxing to Brooklyn.

“This is all part of a bigger picture. For the Klitschkos to think they can show up, steal the show for one night and then leave town and not show up again, they’re a bit naïve.”

Schaefer said he has no problem working with Boente and the Klitschkos, who have their own promotions company, K2. But he said the Klitschkos aren’t interested in doing a co-promotion. Co-promotions are not an unusual occurrence in boxing, unless egos get in the way.

 

:good

 

bull****. Which other champs from other divisions gets so regularly criticized for their ''slave contracts''. I'm not even saying Haye is right or wrong. And yea most of the guys up there on the list said that to explain ducking the klits coz they knew they aren't ready. But the common sense inside you MUST admit that for this many fighters to say the same thing about negotiations with K2, SOMETHING must be going on?

Or do you really think its because the klits are SOOOOOOOOO GREAT and SOOOO amazing, that everybody KNOWS they're gonna get smashed and thats why they say the contracts are shitty?

 

Well this is a new one Who exactly would this personal ref be?

 

maybe he meant his personal chef?

 

Which other champs in other divisions dominate to the extent that K2 does, and has their own promotional company?

If the contracts are so shitty, then they don't have to sign them do they? The majority of those in that list however signed, some more than once.....so it can't be that bad.

 

That is an immensely important factor - And if Vitali decides not to fight anymore, it should be respected

 

Against Brewster he had 3 warnings by the ref before round 2. With the correct officiating he was able to work inside and take Wlad out. He can foul all night long since going to Germany and not recieve a single warning. Its a disgrace.
